2020 was a strange and a very challenging year! There was a lot of pressure in the vineyard to control diseases. This, of course, forced the introduction of a greater concentration of treatments in the vineyard. The hot summer was very harsh for a production that was already reduced, with Touriga Franca being the most affected and that made it very sensitive and there was pressure to withdraw from the vine even before it was at the ideal point.
Confirming the tendency of last years, the 2020 Vintage began earlier than what was consider normal in Alentejo, at 17 of August we started by piking the white grape Fernão Pires and the vintage was carried up to 8 of October, taking us to a 56 days Vintage, one day longer that 2019 Vintage.

Congratulations to Casas del Bosque for the excellent results in the 2020 Tim Atkin's South African Report. An honourable mention to the Noble Late Harvest Riesling 2019 for Best value Sweet Wine of the Year.
The 2018 Vintage Port Quinta dos Muros is a roughly equal blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz aged for a year in very old barrels. It comes in with 111 grams per liter of residual sugar. A notable step up on the regular Portal Vintage Port also reviewed in this report—although differently styled, which may also affect your decision—this has a lot more power and a lot more personality...

Tokara Sauvignon Blanc has claimed its rightful place on the world stage as overall winner of the 12th Concours Mondial du Sauvignon in Brussels. Best Sauvignon of the Competition and the only South African wine to bring home a trophy, Tokara Reserve Collection Sauvignon Blanc 2020 is a cool climate showstopper from Tokara’s Elgin vineyards and another feather in winemaker Stuart Botha’s cap.

In a move to further strengthen their French portfolio, Awin Barratt Siegel Wine Agencies (ABS) has taken on the distribution of Domaine de Galuval for the UK market. Domaine de Galuval is nestled between Cairanne and Rasteau in the hinterland of Provence in the Southern Rhône. It has 49 hectares in various parcels covering some of the best terroir around the Mont Ventoux, along with some of the oldest vines in the region of local varietals such as Caladoc. Low intervention and perfect growing conditions combined with careful parcel selection and judicious ageing result in thoroughly modern wines that remain true to the individual character of each vintage. Winemaker Emmanuel Couzi’s style is guided by the richness of the fruit and the diversity of each terroir.
